Don't know what kind of computer you have but for full size photo which I can take from photobucket or my own pics you press insert image. Then select URL. Then uncheck "Retrieve remote file and reference locally". For the small photo Select insert image (a box with a tree in it) 3 buttons to the left of the spell check button, click it and follow the prompts. This will snatch a photo out of your computer and place the photo onto RTF for you. Press on it will enlarge the photo. Hope I have explained that!!!Thanks Ken for original explanation!!!

Well, yes, when you click on the thumbnail, it opens as a larger image, but I would still like to know how the OP got a full size image to show up in the initial post without clicking on the thumbnail.

It seems that we now have the option of using RTF as the host for images. If you choose to have RTF host your image, it appears as a Thumbnail and can be enlarged by viewers by clicking on the image. In some cases, clicking on the image a second time will enlarge it even more.

As before, you can create a link to your image hosted on a site like photobucket. These appear in the larger size like the OP's in post #1 of this thread. Just upload your image to the host site and then follow the instructions given by Ken and Mary Lynn. The key is that you must deselect the option: Retrieve remote file and reference locally. If you fail to do this, you are effectively requesting that RTF host a full size copy of the image, which likely will fail for exceeding size limitations.

Using the advanced editor, you need to edit your thumbnail in Wysiwig mode (A/A on top left), then double-click on your photo. An Image Settings box should open. Choose Full Size (or one of the other size options) and click OK.

ETA: I couldn't figure this out earlier b/c I wasn't able to get the Image Settings box to open in IE. I tried doing it in Chrome and it worked fine.
